That might not be the case. As with "null encryption", these modes are
more and more being removed from code bases to avoid exploits.

I also do find the value of using selfsigned certs over ACME certs
on the auth server pretty low. It's pretty easy to give a nameserver
with a static name an automatic ACME based certificate. With the
"opportunistic" part being that if the cert fails, to go back to do53.
